Having been a cheerleader, I know all too well what these girls give up to join forces and compete.

I'd rather not have a moment when I'm known for my looks; being funny and interesting lasts longer.

If I'm exhausted and I just don't feel like it, then I don't do it. I am a human being, after all. But I also know I'm the kind of person who, if I take one day off, well, it's very easy for me to take the next day off and then quit exercising.

If I win, it's because of my natural ability and if I lose, it's because I wasn't trying so hard.

I work out every day. It's part of my life. That's one of the benefits of having kids in school full-time.

I don't have the best family history heart-wise, so I really try to keep my heart strong.

I work out with a trainer, Anna Kaiser, three days a week.
